A race where it could pay to be up with the pace. Ten Theatre, Pahaska and My Pollyanna can be expected to be up there in the early stages with possibly, Dahills Hill, Harry Smiles and Laura's Witness not to far behind. Preference is for an each way shout on the Gordon Elliot-trained PAHASKA, Handicap hurdle winner off a mark of 102 at Limerick over 2m6f in April. Brogine and Platinum Express are sure to be there at the business end of the contest.
